A member asked:
I've been congested for a bit now and i woke up out of breath and my chest kinda tight and one nostril stopped up what could it be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Common cold: If the secretions are clear, it is the common cold. Which is likely a virus. During plenty of fluids and get rest. Let the body clear the infection for you. Use Mucinex (guaifenesin) to break up the congestion. Take vitamin c as well. Feel better.
